Who would win in a fight Woodley vs Usman?

Usman - is a high level wrestler, in childhood and youth he participated in competitions in wrestling and three times won the status of all-American athlete. Kamara spends an average of 4.47 of takedown per 15 minutes and is famous for its technique of ground-and-pound. However, Woodley boasts excellent protection from takedown - he blocks 94% of attempts to transfer the fight to the ground, the only fighter who managed to successfully hold takedown against Tyrone Woodley, Rory MacDonald.

Woodley is a former freestyle wrestler, however, he shows excellent results in the rack: Tyrone scored 5 wins by knockout. Shock Usman lacks knockout power, so he will have chances to win only if he can take the fight to the ground. Given the protection of Tayrona from takedowns and his wrestling skills (Woodley has won 6 battles submicron), the probability of winning Camara Usman is extremely small. In our opinion, Tyron Woodley will win and defend a championship belt in a 6 second time. Most likely, the fight will last all 5 rounds and the winner will be determined by the decision of the judges.
